Really enjoyed staying in this beautiful guesthouse. Room was very spacious, comfortable and had a private patio and sitting area. Staff were exceptional, kind and helpful. Great location near Addo Elephant Park - owners booked tours for us in advance. Highlight was the beautiful gourmet meals - make sure you include dinner when asked!

An almost flawless establishment. Eleven thatched permanent tents perched above an authentic old farmstead, now exquisitely restored with atmospheric old prints, lanterns, rugs. Zebra, hartebeest, ostriches came down from the rolling hills to the waterhole beneath the verandah--where extraordinary food was served throughout the day. A hearty breakfast after the morning drive; a light lunch of homemade delicacies and a rainbow of fruit; high tea with scones. Dinner was served on solid mahogany tables in a warren of rooms lit entirely by candles. The beds were huge, with comforting hot water bottles; his-and-hers basins in a well-equipped bathroom to the rear of the tents; everything spotless. A simple but sophisticated update of the safaris of yesteryear with every need catered for. The drives were run by friendly and sympathetic guides with boundless knowledge of the park and respect for all the creatures we met. I cannot recommend Gorah Elephant Camp highly enough.

I loved, loved, loved the thatched roof room we had at Chrislin African Lodge.
The grounds were wonderful with oranges ripe and ready to eat. The air smelled of orange blooms. The night sky was so bright with stars and Milky Way. One night my husband & I sat on the swings and just stared at the sky.
The staff were helpful and friendly and the food at Chrislin was exceptionally good. We ate at the restaurant there both nights.
It was very convenient being picked up at the lodge for our tour of the Addo Elephant Park.

A real gem once you find it. Do not try to find this place after or close to sundown, especially if you are unfamiliar with the roads in this area. Once inside its all stress free and secure and a great welcome of a hot dinner after a long drive. Thank you Annetjie for the welcome and dinner and breakfast, food and the setting is a great stress relief.

Great overall- huge room with very comfortable bed. Food was beyond 5 star, only complaint was that there was too much. Guide for addo park was very knowledgeable, we saw lots of game including literally hundreds of elephants.
